(CF) - Canadians spent more money on motion pic- ture entertainment last year. the per capita expenditure averaging 348.30 compared with 58.21 in 1852 and only 56.15 in 1946. The bureau of statistics report- ed Monday that Ontario. where television was most highly de- veloped in 1953, was the only province where spending was lower. British Columbia replaced Ontario as the. province with the highest average expenditure on movies. its per capita spending rising to 510.56 from 59.94. Spending in other provinces. with 1952 averages in brackets: Alberta 59.75 (58.87). Ontario 59.67 (510.06), Manitoba 57.74 (5731). Nova Scotia 7.35 156.51); Sask- aichewan 57.07 (56.75).

Comments On Cause of Crash TORONTO (GP) - Gordon Mc- Gregor. Trans-Canada Air Lines presxdent. said Monday it is "high- ly unlikely" a defective altimeter was responsible for the crash 10 days ago of a. TCA Super-Consteb latioii. The huge plane came down in a farmer's field near Brampton. Ont.. about 20 miles northwest of To- ronto. All 23 aboard fled to safety moments before the wreckage burst into flames. Mr. MoGregor said the cause of the crash still is a. mystery and will likely remain so for some time. He said a theory the pilot's alti- meter stuck when the plane was at 2,000 feet was unlikely because there are other altimeters in the cockpit which function independ- ently. Mr. McGregor said a fomial in- quiry into the crash has been post- poned until pilot Norman Ramsay returns from two weeks sick leave in Vancouver.

Episcopalian ang- llcan Dean of New York, criticized from the pulpit Sunday a reported agreement between U. S. and span- ish military authorities which would give Roman Catholic church officials power to sanction or for- bid marriages in Spain between U. S. citizens of mixed religions. Preaching in the cathedral of St. John the Divine. Dean Pike said the reported agreement was an at- tempt to "sell down the river our most precious heritage. our relig- ious freedom." He said the U. 5. action apparently was motivated by fear "of any friction with Spain. which is soiixiancialiy dependent upon us it is absurd." The New York Times in a Madrid dispatch said the agreement would place U. S. military and civilian personnel stationed in Spain under Catholic church law in matters of marriage. REQUIRE DISPENSATION Marriages between two membe . of U. S. military or civilian units in Spain. one a Catholic, one non- Cathollc. would require a dispen- sation from the Catholic Church. U. S. chaplains would be -forbidden to marry a Catholic Spaniard and a non-Catholic member of U. 3. units unless the Catholic party re- celved permission from the Span- ish religious authorities. The agreement was negotiated because of the stationing of U. S. troops and civilian personnel in Spain under a. Spariish-American defence agreement. In Washington. government agen- cies sald they were unable to give out any information on the negotia- tions with Spain. INTRICATE PROBLEM Henry suydam, state department press officer, said the problem' is "extremely intricate" and talks about it have been going on rquite ,.a while." At defence headquarters, a spokesman said the defence depart- ment lacks detailed information on the matter and has messaged its representatives in Spain asking for such information. The spokesman said any agree- ment on religious rights would be one of a number of administrative understandings that must be reached with Spain as they have in other countries where Amerjegn forces are stationed.
